c3 Contemporary Art Space February Show
A massive multi-disciplinary show of sculpture, photography and found objects.
Overview
This February, Abbotsford's c3 contemporary art space is showing a massive multi-disciplinary show spanning photography, painting and sculpture. Housed within Abbotsford Convent, the arts space is a special hybrid gallery that combines the works of large-scale, publicly funded galleries and the ethics and structure of smaller, artist-run initiatives.
Spanning three galleries, the February show is diverse and large. In gallery one you’ll find a photography exhibition by James Voller, which examines the suburban housing facades of North Melbourne, as well as Ruby Brown's works exploring race, sexuality and mythology in her exhibition, enigmatically named Multi-Purpose Gap Filler. In gallery two is Oracular Vernacular, a group exhibition composed of the work of over ten artists and curated by Jake Adam Treacy. To make things interactive, the viewer can engage with the exhibition using their smartphone.
Travers Nash takes over gallery three, manipulating objects found on the side of the road to question art and its value. And there's more. So wear comfy shoes — and while you’re there, the grounds at the Covent are the perfect spot for a post-art day picnic too.
